You are correct that most visual processes, especially writing, move from top to bottom. Having the stack grow from bottom to top is part of the "techie" nature of darktable.

My reasoning is that in Western writing systems, we read and write from top to bottom. I understand that the pipeline is also called a 'stack', and the 'last' element on the stack means 'the most recently pushed one', and it's at the top. But, I guess, for many users, a presentation where the last element of the history is at the bottom; where one of the the first modules to apply (such as exposure) appears near the top of the page, not near the bottom; where the pipeline, in execution order, is displayed top-to-bottom, is a very logical expectation.
